A Couple Pictures of my First Mod in a About a Year

So heres a couple pics of a mod I did to my car in a year or so. This made me fall back into love with it and I plan on cleaning her up in the near future. I plan on redoing my jacked up fenders (from previous fender pull's for agressive rims) and fixing up messed up paint work.

Well thanks to wrxyboy (justin) for his old exhaust system and with the install. This is a quad Ti tip. From the cat back, its a stright pipe to one magnaflow muffer, to the Y, then to the quad Ti tips. The tips need a little adjusting since it was made for a Type-S. I plan on tilting the tips upward and a tad bit outward (to clear the bumper). I will post pictures when that is done.

Thanks for looking...

Quad tips FTW. They'll look even better when you're done adjusting them

Thanks, pushed back? Or out? I was thinking of pushing it out so the tips show more. It sounds great. Too bad I have AT lol. It's a safety check. KINDA like smog emmisions check. But they check blinkers lights brakes etc etc to show that your car is safe to be on the streets

this tips themselves are staggered so they are flush with the bumper instead of themselves.

that clear it up a little?

ok heres an update after aligning the tips. I LOVE IT!

I managed to push them further out more, so the burnt Ti tips show more. Also, angled the tips upward to flow with the upward curve of the aspec lip/bumper. Also, VERY slightly angled the tips outward. I also heated up the aspec lip to where its flexible and opened the opening a little more to clear the tips to prevent it from completly burning/melting.. All the work done by me. hope you guys like it, cuz I do!







Oh and for the people who wanted me to change out my dealership license plate frame, I did....

Why? Cars look cleanest with no plate frame. Remove that nasty thing and the back of your car will thank you :-)

Sweet looking car I like what you have done!!

As of right now. Not Much. I wanna spend my time workig on the car itself. I really messed up the fenders for agressive rims. Other than that prolly .07-08 base front end and some nice meaty tires for my stockies.
